Abstract

Purpose This study aims to build on a contextualised approach for revealing the particularities of social sustainability indicators on the building scale within the particular context of Jordan, focusing on the buildings of the Dahiyat Al Hussein suburb. Design/methodology/approach This study relied on a review of the relevant previous research as well as global, regional and local rating tools, followed by working with a diversified participant base comprising experts as well as users through Delphi rounds and analytic hierarchy process-based assessments. Findings This study resulted in several key indicators that were classified into three main categories: environmental friendliness, comfort and convenience and social blend. It resembled a step on the path towards the standardisation of context-specific social sustainability indicators, an effort that would be further supported by future research addressing other development within Jordan. Originality/value The sustainability debate has, for long, acquired the undivided attention of its key stakeholders. With the continuous rise of global attention, the conceptualisation of sustainability has grown more specialised in both function and scale, and sustainable measures have been developed at the macro and micro levels. With the further spread of the concept, recognition of its contextual differences between various countries became more vivid, where the social dimension attains particular importance.
建筑层面的社会可持续性框架:一种情境方法
目的本研究旨在基于情境化方法,揭示约旦特定背景下建筑规模上的社会可持续性指标的特殊性,重点关注Dahiyat Al Hussein郊区的建筑。设计/方法论/方法本研究依赖于对相关先前研究以及全球、区域和地方评级工具的审查,然后通过德尔菲轮和基于层次分析法的评估,与包括专家和用户在内的多元化参与者群体合作。研究结果本研究得出了几个关键指标,分为三大类:环境友好性、舒适便利性和社会融合性。这类似于在实现特定环境的社会可持续性指标标准化的道路上迈出的一步,约旦未来针对其他发展的研究将进一步支持这一努力。独创性/价值长期以来,可持续性辩论一直受到主要利益相关者的关注。随着全球关注度的不断上升,可持续性的概念在功能和规模上都变得更加专业化,并在宏观和微观层面制定了可持续措施。随着这一概念的进一步传播,各国对其背景差异的认识变得更加生动,社会层面变得尤为重要。
